A few months later, after a fairly exhausting day, draining emotions, energy, and tears. Finally Alifa was able to complete the PKL Report well. His relationship with Alim also improved because there were always things that brought them back closer. Alim also contributed in helping Alfa to complete the documents of the PKL Report hearing, including taking Alifa to the office where the petite woman with yellow skin is flat, this is, but others call it a narrow-eyed Muli Lampung with white skin.
Arriving at the banking office where Alifa PKL a few months ago, Alifa gave an interview file to be signed by several employees including the Head of Unit there. Alim waited in the parking lot because he felt unworthy to enter the office because he did not have interests like Alifa.
Alifa walked into the office with a radiant face. When he opened the door, he was greeted warmly.
"Eh, there's Alifa. How's things? Want to see Mr. Handoko, will you?" sapa Bu Lita, the marketing department with a friendly smile while splashing with Alifa.
Alifa replied with a smile. "Alhamdulillah, Mother. Yes, Ma. Mr. Handokonya, is there?"
"There's in his room. Tap the door, Fa. I was also just in my father's room." Bu Lita invited Alifa to Pak Handoko's room and he said goodbye to work.
Alifa walked towards Pak Handoko's room. For some reason, his heart was racing, as if he had just first wanted to meet the boss in the office.
Arriving in front of Mr. Handoko's room, Alifa started knocking on the door.
"Excuse me, Sir. This is Alifa, Mr. Zaidan's son. Can I come in?" Alifa.
Sound from inside the room. "Oh yes, Fa. Just come in." Mr. Handoko invited Alifa to come in with open arms.
Alfie opened the door. The square room is no stranger to Alifa, making him remember the times when he had to go in and out of the room to ask for signatures or file needs for the needs of his PKL Report.
Alfie is welcome to sit.
Sitting in front of Mr. Handoko, Alifa tried to calm down despite still feeling nervous. Mr. Handoko is the boss at his place of Field Work Practice (PKL), and this meeting may be very important to him.
"What's up, Alifa?" asked Mr. Handoko kindly, aware of the nervousness on Alifa's face.
"It used to be PKL time, I learned a lot from Mr. Handoko and my father, Mr. Zaidan. I am so grateful for that opportunity. Now, I have completed my studies and would like to talk about work in this company. I'm very interested in joining and contributing here" Alifa said steadily, trying to calm down. Alifa started her joke, even though she was just going to the PKL Report hearing in the near future.
Mr. Handoko listened carefully, nodding his head as a sign that he was paying attention to Alifa's words. Want to be involved in the drama made by Alifa. "I'm glad to hear that, Alifa. You did show passion and dedication during the PKL. In addition, your work is also quite impressive."
"Well, thank you very much sir" said Alifa with a smile, feeling a little relieved by the positive response from Mr. Handoko.
However, Mr. Handoko also added wisely, "However, you should know that to join here, the competition is quite tight. Many qualified candidates also want the same position." His face was very serious, even though Alifa was not strong enough to hold back laughter.
Alifa nodded in understanding. "Yes, Sir. I understand that. I'm ready to work hard and keep learning to be able to contribute to the maximum in this company" he said with a smile.
Mr. Handoko smiled appreciating the positive attitude of Alifa. "Good, Alifa. Because I see potential in you, that's why I'm going to give you a chance. You'll be interviewing with the HRD team tomorrow morning. Prepare yourself as best you can, yeah."
"Well, thank you very much, sir! I will not disappoint this opportunity" Alifa said excitedly. Then, the laughter broke. Alifa and Pak Handoko laughed out loud.
Not long after, the woman who was almost the same height as Alifa, but was still about one or two inches tall, knocked on the door and was welcome to enter by Mr. Handoko. The woman is familiarly called Mrs Ratih. He served food and drink to Alfah. Alifa is already like a family for employees, OB, even the security guard there because of his caring, friendly, honest, and cleverness that makes Alifa easily accepted by anyone.
"Drink first, Ms. Alifa, while tasting the cake," said Mrs Ratih with a friendly smile.
Alifa returned her smile. "Oh, yes, Mrs Ratih. Thank you very much."
Ratih went out of the room. Alifa and Mr. Handoko returned to talk and now leads to the subject of discussion that Alifa really wants to convey.
"Sir, here are some questions for Mr. Handoko for attachment needs on the interview form on my report. Please be prepared to answer the time," said Alifa expectantly.
"OKAY. Please ask the question. I'm in the coffee, nothing, huh?" Mr. Handoko is indeed a friendly person and very relaxed, but there are times when he is very serious. So, Alifa can balance his attitude.
Then, without waiting for long, Alifa started her interview.
Then, after exiting the room of Mr. Handoko, Alifa to the room of Bu Lita, Pak Andi, and others. He gave a questionnaire that must be filled out by several people in the office. Then do not forget to be given a signature after answering all the questions on the questionnaire paper sheet. Alifa also requested a photocopy of some important files.
After getting all the signatures and some files requested Alifa is complete, Alifa said goodbye and did not forget to thank everyone in the office. They pray for the success of Alifa and hopefully they can meet again on another occasion.
Alifa invited Alim back to the boarding house, in the city of Lampung. Along the way, Alifa unceasingly told stories and expressed her happiness because her dream to graduate three years according to the initial target was wide open. He will soon get what he wants.
After a long trip from the banking office, Alifa and Alim finally arrived at the boarding house in Bandar Lampung. They sat in front of the house while enjoying a warm cup of coffee. Kosan Alifa does not allow men who are not mahrams to enter the room. So, if there is a male friend of boarding children, then you must visit outside; the terrace of the boarding house that has been provided seating.
Alifa while smiling happily. "Alim, I don't know how I can thank you. Without your support and assistance, I might never have been able to complete this PKL Report properly."
Alim smiled gently. "You know, Alifa, I've always believed in you. You have incredible potential and ability. I just want to help you achieve your dreams. After all, all this is thanks to your hard work and persistence in completing it."
"I promise, later if I graduate and succeed, then I will give you a special gift. What do you want?"
"No special gift needed, Alifa. Seeing you happy and successful has been the most beautiful gift to me."
Alifa smiled blushed. "Thank you, Alim. You always make me smile and feel excited."
"You make me feel better every time I'm with you."
Alifa pondered for a moment. "Remind me to never give up, huh? I know my future isn't necessarily easy, but I'll try my hardest."
"I will always support you, Alifa. We strengthen each other and share the spirit."
The two of them chuckled, enjoying a moment of togetherness after going through many struggles. The warmth between them grew tighter and laughter filled Alifa's room.
A week later, the time has finally come for Alifa to hold a hearing of the PKL Report. Many helped him to succeed the trial, not only boarding friends, close friends on campus, but friends of Alifa's sister also helped. Alifa was deeply moved because many cared about her. They prepared everything an hour before the trial.
Until the time came, Alifa also presented the results of his PKL Report. All those who were in the courtroom, listened solemnly. Moreover, the examiner and guide of Alifa, they really pay attention to Alifa to give an assessment.
After the presentation is finished. Alifa and all audiences were asked to wait outside. Instructors and testers at the Alifa PKL Report hearing discussed together in the room.
Thirty minutes later, Alifa was finally told to enter. The examiner told Alifa that the PKL Report that had just been presented had been received and he graduated with a very satisfactory value of getting an A, yes even though there are some things that must be improved, but there are some things that must be improved, at least Alifa's efforts were not in vain. Everyone present celebrated the happy news joyfully.
Alifa while grasping the assessment results of the examiner and supervisor. "Finally, it's all real. I graduated!" Alifa spontaneously wanted to embrace Alim, then was held back by her brother; eliz.
"Oh yes, I forgot," said Alifa and immediately switched to hug her brother and his female friends.
Alim smiled widely. "Congratulations, Alifa! I know you can. This is the beginning of your career success."
"I'll never forget everything you've done for me. You are one of the most important people in my life. Thank you very much, yes." Alifa. Eyes sparkling.
Alim smiled warmly. "Together, Alifa. Whenever you need it, I'm ready to help."
The others congratulated Alifa. Finally one mission has passed, just past the next missions to be able to graduate quickly.
Alifa and everyone present at the PKL Alifa congregation celebrated the success by eating together and planning their future. Alifa is increasingly convinced that their friendship will not only survive college, but will continue in the course of their lives.
Finally, Alifa stepped confidently towards her future dream. Not only because of its success in the PKL Report, but also because of the presence of Alim and the support of his other friends. They realize that together, they can overcome all obstacles and achieve whatever they want.
